High-Pressure Cleaning
High-Pressure Cleaning in Richards Bay
High-pressure water jetting clears the scale, sludge and process buildup that ordinary cleaning methods can't shift — on structures, hardstands, and equipment across industrial sites in Richards Bay.
This is one of AB Sambane's most-used services on live plant, including work carried out at a major aluminium smelter and a large chemical processing facility in the Richards Bay area.
Crews and equipment are supplied together, and jobs range from scheduled maintenance wash-downs to urgent buildup that's stopping other work from proceeding.
Applications
- Scale and buildup removal from structures and equipment
- Hardstand and yard surface cleaning
- Pre-maintenance surface preparation
- Tank and vessel exterior cleaning
- General high-pressure wash-down for industrial sites
Equipment
High-pressure jetting units are deployed alongside our super sucker fleet where recovered material needs to be removed from site, not just moved around.

Frequently Asked Questions
What surfaces can be high-pressure cleaned?
Concrete hardstands, steel structures, tanks and vessels, and process equipment — we assess the surface and buildup type before selecting pressure and technique.
Do you remove the material afterwards?
Yes, where needed our super sucker fleet works alongside the jetting crew to recover and remove material from site, not just relocate it.
Can this be done on a working mine or plant?
Yes — this is exactly the kind of work we regularly carry out on live plant for existing industrial clients.
